What is New Mexico Grown?

New Mexico Grown is a values-based local food purchasing program that nourishes New Mexico school-age children, older adults, and families with fresh, locally produced food.

We work with local farmers, ranchers, food producers, food hubs, state agencies, and food banks to connect them to local food right here in our state. Through these connections, we’re strengthening New Mexico’s food system from farm to plate.

New Mexico Grown values fair pricing for the products that our farmers, ranchers, and food producers supply.
